Comment
I strongly oppose the proposed consolidation of Ontario’s Conservation Authorities.
- Current collaboration and communication systems work well; restructuring will add unnecessary complexity and costs without clear benefits.
- Local expertise is essential—larger authorities will dilute tailored services like flood prevention or invasive species management, harming communities and the environment.
- Consolidation reduces municipal decision-making power and risks delays, job losses, and service disruptions.
- No evidence or business case has been provided to show these changes will improve efficiency or save money.
